Welcome to the taiga home page, created by Ashley and David!!! Within these pages, you will learn many things about the taiga, including its climate, where it is located, landforms, and much more!
The taiga is located in the northern parts of the world, just south of the tundra. It is located in mid-Canada and Eurasia. It can also be found in the northernmost parts of the United States, such as upper Michigan, Minnesota, and Maine. Because the taiga is at such a high latitude, the sun doesn't rise far above the horizon. Therefore, the temperatures in the taiga are cold most of the year.
The taiga has only two seasons, summer and winter. It is the coldest biome besides the tundra. It's also the largest biome. There are two kinds of taiga- the arctic taiga and the alpine taiga. Arctic taiga is in the northern part of Canada and in parts of Russia. The arctic taiga is much colder than the alpine taiga.The alpine taiga is in Europe, the northernmost parts of the U.S., and southern Canada. The alpine taiga is warmer than the arctic taiga. The summer's average temperature in the taiga is 19 C, while the winter's average te

mperature is
-30 C. The winters last about 7 or 8 months, and are cold and snowy.
The summers, however, are short, warm, and humid, lasting about 4 months. The taiga has very little precipitation, an average of 20 to 75 cm throughout the whole a year. This is mostly rain in the summer months, and fog and snow in the winter months. When it is summer, the northern hemisphere is facing the sun, creating almost 24 hours of sunlight in a day for the taiga. As for the winter, the northern hemisphere is facing away from the sun, having it become cold, with little sunlight.
